Ooh. I am v envious of your garden, and your nice plants, and trellis, & general outside space with room for chairs and tables... Do you know how much extra it costs to have a garden when you're trying to buy a place in London? A hundred million billion pounds...
Know what you mean about the sun, I'm fair skinned an burn when I turn on a light. In fact I never turn on lights and live in complete darkness. Or so my priest told me when I was six. Funny how that stuff never leaves a person.
Annie,
I am aware that in London only the rich and powerful experience the pull of the soil and the rest of you live in dungeons and below ground. Real estate is an expensive business, just ask the Queen. Come and live in Manchester where it's still possible to buy a little house with a yard (not a garden though) for £90k, yes that's ninety thousand poinds. I read somewhere that Londoners pay that much for a place at the front of a bus queue...
G,
Thanks, but I'd love to live in Georgetown and have all those trees and countryside and forest and a sea wall... Hey, maybe we could swop. One summer you can come and stay here and I'll come and live in your house for two weeks. I'll be kind to your mum, honest...

Maybe should invest in some house plants that I can't kill, like cactuses (cacti?)
I should've guessed you'd have a lovely backyard, Dan. Hope it's great this summer, no cats to bother you :-)
